Nestled in the highly desirable Country Club Heights neighborhood, this timeless McKay built, Colonial Revival home blends classic architecture with thoughtful modern updates across more than 3,800 square feet of living space. Surrounded by mature charm and set on a beautifully refreshed lot with 21 newly planted trees, updated landscaping, and a stunning pergola retreat, this property offers both elegance and everyday comfort. Inside, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, plus a non-conforming lower-level bedroom ideal for guests, a home gym, or flex space. Rich original hardwood flooring flows throughout much of the home, complemented by engineered hardwood in the oversized family room. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace and elegant pocket French doors opening into the family room, creating warmth and character rarely found in today's homes. Architectural details such as arched built-ins, original trim work, and generous room sizes enhance the home's timeless appeal. The updated kitchen combines style and function with RO system, undermount sink, gas range, and newer appliances including a refrigerator (2024) and washer (2024). A tankless water heater installed in April 2026 adds to modern efficiency, while the home's zoned HVAC system provides year-round comfort. The dedicated office space with built-in desk makes working from home seamless and organized. The lower level offers a spacious rec room with wet bar, while the charming screened-in porch overlooks the flat backyard oasis. The unfinished attic provides the opportunity to create additional finished living space.
